Halloweenies

Oh, the festivities!

Pumpkin patching in San Martin.

I went with these two sweetie pies:

In addition to picking (huge) pumpkins, this patch touted a variety of activities such as:

A pumpkin blaster. This is a gun that shoots tiny pumpkins at targets.

Trevor was alllll 'bout it-'bout it. Shea got into it, too. 

They had a carousel which the owner had purchased for his 16 year old daughter named Sydney. I asked Trevor if he had gotten HIS daughter Sydney a carousel yet, and he said he has two more years 'til she's 16. I think, though, that if he REALLY wants to buy her a carousel for her 16th birthday, I will tactfully steer him towards purchasing her a car or an awesome computer or something sparkly. What kind of 16 year old wants a carousel? But I digress!

Those two. Boy, they really warm my heart.

Here are the Pumpkin Queens. I swear Shea likes me. 

We picked out three mammoth gourds and took them home for carving.

Shea did the spider, I carved the goblin and Trevor carved Mickey. Our jack-o-lanterns were very well received. The trick or treaters LOVED them. 

We were invited to a Halloween Party on Saturday night, and we spent all day making our costumes. Trevor's mom came along to help pick out fabric and design the costumes. She and Shea sewed Shea's skirt together while Trevor and I ran around looking for cowprint. One of my favorite days ever. All of my days are becoming my favorite days ever. I'm a lucky girl.

Here we are all gussied up- Woody, Jessie and Bo Peep.

Party time:

By the way, Shea's Bo Peep bonnet is a Dollar Tree cowboy hat cut in half.

Avery is so cute that I can't even stand it.

Jess, Adam and Hayden:

We spent our Halloween evening passing out candy to the kiddos. Hung some spooky lights and lit some spooky candles and waited in the front yard for the spooky goblins to come calling. It was a good night. Happy Halloween!
